Abstract
A shaving implement includes a handle; a razor cartridge pivotally connected thereto; a biasing member extending from the handle and contacting the razor cartridge; and a bridge pivotally connected to the razor cartridge and slidably connected to the handle. The razor cartridge includes one or more razor blades and a cap located aft of the blades. The razor cartridge is pivotally connected to the handle such that the cartridge pivots about an axis that is generally parallel to and aft of the razor blades, the cartridge being pivotable between a neutral position and a rotated position. The biasing member extending from the handle is in contact with the razor cartridge to urge the cartridge toward the neutral position. The bridge is slidable between a first position when the razor cartridge is in the neutral position and a second position when the cartridge is in the rotated position.
